This political history of US manpower training and employment policy from the 1946 Employment Act to the current Job Partnership Act analyzes the failure of the US to adopt viable employment policies. Between these two landmarks of legislation lie the War on Poverty, attempts to create public service employment (PSE), the abortive Humphrey-Hawkins Act, and the beleaguered Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA).
